Best way to remove a convex warp from a maple dresser top that's already been removed from the unit?
I've been asked to build a wooden sign for a business. It would need to be about 4' to 4.5' in diameter and hang from a tall sign hanger. What is the best way to join boards that will be in the weather? Is marine plywood an option? I've never been asked to do a project like this before, so any help would be appreciated.
What paint is best to use on MDF?
Which spiral router bit is more useful, in general--upcut or downcut?
I've been using router bits with bearings for quite awhile. But I'm not really familiar with those bushings. What are they and how do they work? Thanks
How can I flatten a cupped board?
I build outdoor furniture with 2x4 pine lumber. In order to cut down on sanding I am thinking of buying a hand planer. Are they that useful?
Will freezing wood eliminate beetles or other pests in fresh cut slabs? Also, if I use Bora Care on wood, can I still use mineral oil and expect that the wood will be “food safe?”
What’s the best resin to use for beginners?
When do you wear a dust make when you work and what kind do you use?
